    Google keyboard built-in ?

    2016 MBP nTB can't find Anker BT keyboard

    It can find and pair with the Apple wireless keyboard though, but not the Anker (A7226). Tried deleting the bluetooth file in preferences and byhost and resetting the bluetooth module. No luck. So I'm guessing the Anker is useless w/resp to the new MBP. Suggestions?
